Brees completed 35 of 44 passes for 285 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in Thursday's 23-20 loss to the Panthers. He didn't net any yards on two rushes and lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

Brees' final stat line certainly looks appealing, but the Panthers made him settle for much shorter throws than usual, holding him to this third-lowest YPA of the season (6.48). He did fire multiple touchdowns for the third straight week, and was able to post his highest single-game completion percentage (79.6) of the season while connecting with 10 different pass catchers. Brees will try to get the Saints back in the win column when they take on the Rams in Week 12.
